Introduction

The D&C-LI CADD Specification Manual has been prepared to assist City of Toronto Design and Construction – Linear Infrastructure (D&C-LI) staff along with consulting engineers retained by the City of Toronto when creating engineering drawings for capital projects in the Technical Services division. This manual gives a general overview of the Design and Construction – Linear Infrastructure CADD drawing standards and specifications you will need when preparing any engineering drawing. Additional reference documents are available and will be noted, where applicable.

Version 1.3 Upgrade Notes

The following changes have been made to the Design and Construction – Linear Infrastructure (D&C-LI) CADD drawing standards and specifications for the release of Version 1.3: Surrounds • All drawing "surrounds" have been recreated at a scale of 1:1 to

match drawing "surrounds" used by Design and Construction – Major Works Facilities. A scale factor of "200" is applied for "surround" placement when using "Task Manager" to ensure that the final drawing scale is 1:200.

• New "surround" levels were created to fix some issues when

"surround" cells were dropped. All "surround" levels are now "by-level".

• All "Executive Director", "Director" and "Manager" names have been

removed from drawing "surrounds". Nine (9) cells (models) have been created with the appropriate names. The appropriate name(s) can be selected through "Task Manager".


12 September 2012

Levels • The level structure for the "Structures and Expressways" component

of the specification for bridge work was updated. The changes are listed in the table below:

Table I: Changes to "Structures & Expressways" Levels

Level Name Change Hidden_Linework_A_DES New Hidden_Linework_B_DES New Hidden_Linework_C_DES New Hidden_Linework_D_DES New Hidden_Linework_E_DES New Bridge_Cable_Proposed_DES Weight = 5 Bridge_CL_Existing_DES Line Style = 4 Bridge_CL_Proposed_DES Line Style = V8 centre

Weight = 1 Bridge_Dimension_Proposed_DES Weight = 1 ; Colour = 0 Bridge_Hatching_Proposed_DES Weight = 2 Bridge_Rebar_Existing_DES Line Style = 2 Bridge_Rebar_Proposed_DES Weight = 5 Bridge_Structural_Joints_Existing_DES Line Style = 2 Bridge_Structural_Joints_Proposed_DES Line Style = 2 Bridge_Title_Symbology_Proposed_DES Weight = 3 Bridge_Notes_Proposed_DES Deleted Cells • Certain "legend" and "note" cells have been recreated to ensure that

when the cell is "dropped", all resulting levels are "by-level".

• Thirteen (13) new cells were created to deal with section "titles/notes" primarily for, but not limited to, "Structures and Expressways" bridge work. All cells were created at a scale of 1:1 and added to "Task Manager" under the "TEXT / SECTION NOTES" tab. The new cells are:

1. sectno 2. sectno1 3. sectno2 4. sectno3 5. sectno4 6. sectno5

Task Manager & On-line Help File • Four (4) videos have been added to the help file accessed through

"Task Manger" and all associated documentation has been updated to reflect changes to the specification. The on-line help file, "Help.pdf" has been updated to include bookmarks to provide an index of available topics.

• Certain commands in "Task Manager" were placing elements with an

attribute override resulting in "by-level" errors. This issue has been fixed.

• "Existing" utility labels and "existing" crossing utility labels have been

moved to the appropriate discipline tabs. Specifically, "Storm", "Sanitary", "Combined", "Watermain" and "Gas" have now been moved to their respective tab.

• Discipline related text (i.e. "Storm", "Sanitary", "Combined",

"Watermain", etc.) has been moved out of the "Text" tab and placed in the appropriate utility text tab.

• Some task descriptions have been modified to provide description

consistency. Some tasks were missing the word "existing" or "proposed".

Chapter 1 Drawing Setup

Computer aided design and drafting (CADD) data produced by the Design & Construction – Linear Infrastructure section in the Technical Services division is subject to the standards, specifications and procedures as detailed in this manual. Additional documents mentioned should be used to supplement the information contained in this manual. The Technical Services division creates and maintains CADD data in Bentley MicroStation design file (.dgn) format. Data files are provided and exchanged using the MicroStation version 8 (V8) file format. Data originating from outside parties, such as contractors and suppliers, will be made available in its original format, without data conversion. All CADD files provided to consulting engineers by the Design & Construction – Linear Infrastructure section use the "Pack and Go" utility (WinZip) in the Technical Information Management System (TIMS) software.

Recommended Software

The following software is utilized by staff in the Technical Services division for their day to day operations: • Microsoft™ XP Professional Service Pack 3 • Microsoft™ Office XP 2007 (or better) • Bentley™ MicroStation 8i (version 08.11.xx) • Bentley™ InRoads 8i (version 08.11.xx) • Bentley™ ProjectWise InterPlot Organizer (version 08.11.xx) • Bentley™ ProjectWise InterPlot Server (version 08.11.xx) • Adobe PDF Reader Version 6 (or better)


16 September 2012

Seed File

All CADD files are created using City standard MicroStation seed files. These seed file are provided as part of the CADD information package. For more information on this package, see "Chapter 5, Procedures for Consultants" of this manual. There are two (2) seed files available and they are listed in the following table. Table 1: MicroStation Seed Files Seed File Name Usage v8_seed_2d_1.3.dgn 2D design work v8_seed_3d_1.3.dgn 3D design work

Global Origin The global origin (GO) is a point in space indicating the origin of the Cartesian co-ordinate system used in design plane co-ordinates. All CADD files use a standard global origin in the seed file of x = 0 and y = 0 for 2D files and x = 0, y = 0 and z = 0 for 3D files. This places the origin (0,0) of the design plane in the bottom left corner making all co-ordinates in the design plane positive. A change to the global origin is not permitted. Working Units All CADD files have units of resolution as per the City standard seed files. The table below shows the settings for working units in the seed files. A change to the units of resolution is not permitted. Table 2: MicroStation Working Units Setting Value Master Unit Meters (m) Sub Unit Centimeters (cm) Format MU (master units) Resolution 2500 units per meter


September 2012 17

Mapping Co-ordinates

The City of Toronto's operational co-ordinate system is the 3-degree Modified Transverse Mercator (MTM), Ontario Zone 10, North American Datum 1927 (NAD27). All CADD files are drawn using this co-ordinate system. The X and Y co-ordinates are related to real world grid co-ordinates. Within the geographic vicinity of the City of Toronto, metric co-ordinate values are in the range ±4,800,000 metres (northing) along the Y-axis and ±300,000 metres (easting) along the X-axis. City base mapping and subsequent reference files are co-ordinated to this grid system (3° MTM). All CADD files, when referenced together, shall represent the final work in its entirety. Table 3: City of Toronto Co-ordinate System Setting Value Datum North American Datum 1927 (NAD27) Projection 3° Modified Transverse Mercator (MTM) Zone 10


18 September 2012

Drawing Scale

Linear Design Work All CADD files should be drawn to scale using metric units. Design files are drawn exclusively to a scale of 1:1. Master design files are plotted at a scale of 1:200. Available surrounds are preset at 1:1 and must be scaled to plot at 1:200. Commands in "Task Manger" are available to perform this scaling. The number of master files is dependent on the length and shape of the contract area. Structures and Expressways Design Work All CADD files should be drawn to scale using metric units. Certain areas and/or features may be shown as a "detail" with exaggerated scale. Reference files may be scaled at attachment. The scale must be clearly noted for the particular "detail" or reference file if not at the same scale as the final plot. Master design files are plotted at a scale of 1:1. The available surround is preset to plot to 1:1. All general arrangements should be reference scaled and plotted at the same scale, as dictated by the City project manager. The number of master files is dependent on the complexity of the project.


September 2012 19

Level Structure

Levels (or layers) are used to separate various types of data. All elements in the design (drawing) files must be placed on their own pre-assigned level(s). Technical Services uses a "by-level" approach in the level structure. Each level is assigned a unique symbology (colour, weight, line style, etc.) that must be adhered to. The level structure is stored in the V8_Levels_1.3.dgnlib DGN library (DGNLIB). Attaching DGN libraries (DGNLIBs) is described in the next section, "New Drawing, Making Resources Available", of this manual. All files in the project must adhere to the same level structure. Changes to the level structure are not permitted.

Additional Documentation For more information about the D&C-LI level structure, please refer to the Design & Construction Linear Infrastructure – Version 1.3 MicroStation Levels reference document. Each level in the Version 1.3 graphic specification is documented with the following information:

• Level Name • Level Number • Level Description • Level Line Style (by-level) • Level Weight (by-level) • Level Colour Number (by-level) • Level RGB Colour Value

See "Appendix D, Additional Documentation" for document file name.


20 September 2012

New Drawing

All resources required for new drawings are contained in various files, with three (3) main file types:

1. dgnlib (DGN library) 2. rsc (resource file) 3. ctb (colour table file)

DGN Library (dgnlib) The DGN library, or dgnlib, is a special design file that contains data that is shared throughout files and among users. These shared resources consist of things that you define and name, which are used as standards by members of a workgroup. In general, the following data is stored in the supplied dgnlibs: • level definitions • cell definitions • multi-line settings • dimension settings • text settings The following table lists the dgnlibs required for Version 1.3. Table 4: DGN Libraries (DGNLIBs) DGN LIBRARY CONTAINS V8_levels_1.3.dgnlib levels ; multi-line settings ; dimension

settings ; text settings ; tasks This is the main dgnlib.

Chapter 2 Project Setup

Folder Structure

Project folders identify storage areas common for all project files. The folder structure may also be used to apply security to a single or group of files (drawings).

Project folders are created automatically using WinZip to unpack files created by the "Pack and Go" utility in the Technical Information Management System (TIMS) software. WinZip extraction should point to the root directory (c:\) for folders and files to be extracted.

Files are to remain in the originating directories and referenced into the master file. Reference files should be attached with the "Save Relative Path" check box checked in the "Attach Reference" form (the check box is near the bottom of the form).

The next figure shows a TIMS screen capture of a project directory structure.

CADD File Type

Master file and reference file are the two (2) CADD file types used for linear design work and structures and expressways work. There are some differences between linear design work and structures and expressways work in terms of the master and reference files. These differences will be noted when required. Master File A master file contains a surround title block, legend, north arrow and key map. The project street name or structure and limits with applicable information about the project must be included in the title block. All graphic data for the project area will be drawn in real size that is at a scale of 1:1. Design work will be completed in separate MicroStation design files and referenced into the master file. Reference scaling may be required for structures and expressways work. At no time should any of these files be merged. The consulting engineer will be provided with one master MicroStation design file for each project. For example — y11254u1.dgn. Additional copies of this design file will have to be created depending on the length, complexity and/or layout of each particular project. Sequential numbers are used for this purpose. For example — y11254u2.dgn ; y11254u3.dgn ; y11254u4.dgn ; etc. Only D&C-LI staff is authorized to create original master file drawing numbers. Preliminary file names are a combination of year of project, project number, work type and sequential number (as discussed above). Both linear design work and structures and expressways design work use the same syntax for preliminary master file names. The table on the next page gives an example of this file naming syntax for delivered preliminary master files.


26 September 2012

Table 7: Delivered (Preliminary) Master File Name Syntax Filename: y11245u1.dgn Description y11254u1.dgn Required "y" (year) character y11 Last 2 digits of year project added to program 254u1.dgn y11254 Project number (starts at 001 for each

project year) assigned by City staff u1.dgn

y11254u1.dgn Designator where: "u" is for utility work "p" is for road work "s" is for structures and expressways work "m" is for miscellaneous master sheets

y11254u1.dgn Sequential number for multiple sheets (as discussed)

Master File Name Change Once the design is ready to proceed to the tender stage, the master file name is changed. The name change is different, depending on whether the project is linear design work or structures and expressways design work. The next sections will detail these master file name changes. Master File Name Change – Linear For linear design work, the change of name will include a unique street code identifier, referred to as the "lfn_id". The change of name also includes a sequential number based on construction projects previously completed on the street, a useful history of past construction projects for that street. This sequential number can only be assigned by D&C-LI administrative staff and does not necessarily start at "001". The next table outlines the syntax for the master file name change for linear design work.

Master File Name Change – Structures and Expressways For structures and expressways design work, the name change will include a unique structural identifier and a unique bridge number. A sequential number, similar to that for linear design work, is also part of the name change. The next table outlines the syntax for the master file name change. Table 10: Structures & Expressways Design Master File Name Change for Tender Filename: 123-S-456-001.dgn Description 123 Structural identifier -S-456-001.dgn 123-S-456-001.dgn Dash "-" separator character between

Reference File Generally, there is only one (1) reference file from the various types for each project, regardless of the number of master files required. When attached to a master file, the required area in the reference file will be visible based on the location of the master file. The naming convention for reference files is indicated in the following tables. Tables are broken into the following categories: • Design (proposed features) reference files • InRoads (proposed features) reference files • Property line (existing features) reference files • Topographic (existing features) reference files • Utilities (existing features) reference files • Miscellaneous reference files Reference files listed in the following tables are valid for both linear design work and structures and expressways design work. The "Logical Name" column in the tables contains the logical name that should be used when design files are attached as references to the master file(s). In the tables on the following pages, an example file name is given, based on the job number (<job#>) from the previous section, namely "y11254".

Cover Sheet For large projects a cover sheet, or sheets, may be required. Generally, there should be a key map showing locations of master files and administrative information about the project. For linear design work, cover sheets follow a similar naming convention as for master files (discussed earlier in this section). The only difference is a change in the project type field. For cover sheets the designator is "m" or "M" (miscellaneous master sheet). All cover sheets should start at one (1), or at the next number if an "m" or "M" drawing already exists. This number is incremented sequentially if multiple cover sheets are required. For structures and expressways work, cover sheets continue using the "s" or "S" designator as for all other master sheets. A sequential number is increased and appended for multi-sheet cover pages. This sequential number does not necessarily start at "1". Final drawing numbers will be assigned by D&C-LI staff at 90% completion. Cover sheets must be included in the "Digital Submission Form".


34 September 2012

Base Plan Data Base plan data (ESM, DMOG, CUMAP, etc.) is available for use in linear design work. Designers in D&C-LI can obtain required base mapping through the "CapitalWorks Basemap Template" application developed and maintained by DIS. External consultants will be provided base mapping as part of the deliverables provided in the information package. Information copied from base mapping into design files must be transcribed to the correct D&C-LI level structure.

CADD File Naming Convention

The City file naming convention used must be applied throughout the entire project. File Renaming Renaming previously created digital files must be avoided. The exception to this rule is when the master file(s) will be renamed prior to the tendering stage. This change must be authorized only by the respective district Design CADD Plans Administrative Supervisor or authorized staff in Design & Construction – Linear Infrastructure.

Additional Documentation For more information about obtaining and preparing base plan data, please refer to the Base Plan Preparation reference document. See "Appendix D, Additional Documentation" for document file name.

Chapter 3 Title Blocks and Revisions

Title Block

All master design files must have a title block. A standardized title block is created by placing the appropriate "surround" cell from the v8_surrounds_1.3.dgnlib cell DGN library (dgnlib). The blank fields in the standard surround cell, generally "tagged" text, must be filled in or edited accordingly. A blank title block is shown in Figure 2 below.

Figure 2: Blank Title Block Main Information The "Main Information" area contains the following "tagged" text fields to fill in: • project street name or structure name • limits (from | to) shown on the particular sheet • project work type Figure 3 (next page) shows the "Main Information" area field in the title block.


36 September 2012

Figure 3: Blank Title Block Showing "Main Information" Area Date The "Date" area field has the date of the last change made and is shown using the "month day, year" format (for example — July 11, 2011). All submitted drawings will include the latest up-to-date "Date". The "Date" is a "tagged" text field Figure 4 shows the "Date" area field in the title block.

Drawing Number The "Drawing Number" area "tagged" text field must be populated with the correct drawing number. The drawing number naming convention for the title block drawing number is described in detail in the previous chapter, "Chapter 2, Drawing Setup" of this manual. Figure 5 shows the "Drawing Number" area field in the title block.

Figure 5: Blank Title Block Showing "Drawing Number" Area Scale – Linear Design Work For linear work the "Scale" area field is shown in horizontal for plan view and vertical for profile view. All Design & Construction – Linear Infrastructure plans will be drawn to the following scales: • Horizontal 1 : 200 • Vertical 1 : 100 If only "horizontal" information is shown on the drawing, then the "vertical" component can be excluded (i.e. deleted). If only "vertical" information is shown on the drawing, then the "horizontal" component can be excluded (i.e. deleted). The "Scale" area field is not a "tagged" text field. Figure 6 (next page) shows the "Scale" area field in the title block of the linear design surround.

All scaled reference attachments should have the scale noted. Final plot scales are at the discretion of the City's project manager. The "Scale" area field in the surround for Structures and Expressways differs slightly from the one pictured in Figure 6. If only one scale is used throughout the drawing, then this scale can be noted in the area field. If the drawing shows multiple details at different scales, then "as noted" should be placed in the "Scale" area field. See Figure 7.

Sheet The "Sheet" area field is for tracking multiple sheets for the same project. This is an optional field but should be used for larger projects. The "Sheet" area is a "tagged" text field. For linear design work, something like "1 of xx" should be used to indicate the number of sheets. For structures and expressways work, a discipline identifier and sequential number can be used. For example, if electrical work is featured on the drawings, something like "E1, E2, E3, etc." can be used. Discipline identifier naming is not enforced as long as there is no ambiguity. Figure 10 (next page) shows the "Sheet" area field in the title block.

Task Manager The MicroStation "Task Manager" is a tool to facilitate automatic drawing functions associated with design within D&C-LI. It is part of the available MicroStation tools. All linear features such as multi-lines, cells, models, text settings, dimension settings, etc. have been incorporated into the "Task Manager" to enable design staff to automatically place design features and to manage various CADD settings associated with design. The "Task Manager" has been configured to allow element placement without having to set any graphic attributes (level, line style, colour, weight, etc.). The designer need only to select the required task and "Task Manager" will automatically place elements with the correct settings and attributes. It is recommended that the MicroStation "Task Manager" be used for all design work. Comprehensive on-line help is available through the "Task Manager" detailing all tasks and showing some sample drawings.

Additional Documentation For more information about the "Task Manager" and its use for D&C-LI design, please refer to the following reference documents:

• City of Toronto Task Manager • City of Toronto Design & Construction – Linear

Infrastructure MicroStation Linear Tasks (Tree Structure) – v1.3

See "Appendix D, Additional Documentation" for document file names.


44 September 2012

Cells and Cell Libraries Standard cells are grouped in various DGN libraries (cell libraries). Cell libraries have a "dgnlib" extension and can be used as libraries or models. The consulting engineer will attach the appropriate cell library, choose an active cell, and place it with in the design drawing. Only cells contained in the approved DGN libraries should be used. Shared cells are not to be used. Cells should not be dropped (broken into individual graphic components). The exception to dropping cells is for "surround" cells which require the title block information to be modified for each project. The following table lists the available cell DGN libraries delivered in the information package. Table 19: Cell DGN Libraries DGN Library Contains v8_cells_master_1.3.dgnlib cell models ; patterning models ;

Orientation Some notes on orientation follow. • Orient plans so that stationing progresses from right to left. This is

south to north.

Figure 13: Orientation from South to North • Orient plans so that stationing progresses from left to right. This is

west to east.

Figure 14: Orientation from West to East • Orient plans so that north points up the sheet, wherever possible. • Insert a standard north arrow in the top right corner, unless included

in the key plan.

• If true geographic north cannot be used, establish and insert a project north arrow.


46 September 2012

• Orient views in the same direction.

• Orient drawings, notes, and dimensions so that they can be read from the bottom right hand side of the sheet.

• Rotate MicroStation views so as to orient drawings horizontally or

vertically.

• Do not move, rotate or scale plan view CADD data for "linear" work.

• Move, scale, and rotate referenced border file as required.

Scale Elements placed within a MicroStation design file should be drawn at a scale of 1:1 (no scaling). This is the case for all linear design work. For structures and expressways design work, "detail" information should be drawn at 1:1 and then reference scaled accordingly. The scale of the "detail" must be noted unambiguously.


September 2012 47

Line Weight Line weight differences must be clearly visible on both full and half size plots. The following table is to be used as a guide. Table 20: MicroStation Line Weight to Metric Width Chart MicroStation Line Weight (wt=) Metric Width (mm) 0 0.13 1 0.18 2 0.20 3 0.25 4 0.30 5 0.35 6 0.40 7 0.45 8 0.50 9 0.60 10 0.70 11 0.80 12 1.00 13 1.20 14 1.40 15 1.50 16 1.60 17 1.80 18 2.00 19 2.25 20 3.00 For information about the recommended line weights and corresponding metric width when plotted in full size, please see the "Plotting" section in this chapter.


48 September 2012

Line Styles Line styles are stored in resource (rsc) files and should be loaded through a MicroStation "WorkSpace" (as previously discussed). The following table lists the resource line style files delivered in the information package. Table 21: Line Style Resource Files RESOURCE FILE CONTAINS svylstyl_1.3.rsc engineering survey line styles esm_udls_1.3.rsc topographic mapping line styles englstyl_1.3.rsc engineering line styles (compatibility) acadlstyl_1.3.rsc AutoCAD line styles v8_custom_linestyles_1.3.rsc D&C-LI line styles Most custom line styles developed by the City for design work will be located in the v8_custom_linestyles_1.3.rsc file. The creation of new line styles is not permitted. Patterns and Hatching Apply any necessary patterns to detail on small scale drawings. Use the standard patterns as delivered with MicroStation or as provided in the v8_levels_1.3.dgnlib DGN library. Using MicroStation "Task Manager" will simplify drafting operations by setting the correct pattern or hatching based on the selected task. It is up to the designer to select the correct tool for patterns and hatching, depending on the type of element(s) that is to be patterned or hatched.

Additional Documentation For more information about the D&C-LI line styles, please refer to the Design & Construction Linear Infrastructure – Version 1.3 MicroStation Line Styles reference document. All line styles from the resource files are shown in the document. See "Appendix D, Additional Documentation" for document file name.


September 2012 49

Text Style and Size Fill text nodes, data fields and tags with text using uppercase letters only. Use standard fonts as delivered with MicroStation or as provided in the v8_levels_1.3.dgnlib DGN library. All text attributes are pre-set in the MicroStation "Task Manager". Drafting Abbreviations Use abbreviations only when space restricts the spelling of the full word. Match Lines Where partial working areas are shown, display sheet limits by including match lines. Coordinate match lines with adjacent sheets by including the drawing name along the match line and outside of the working area. Key Plan The key plan will be used to show the extent of the working area and spatially relate the project to the surrounding area. Some things to note about key plans: • The key plan is to be located in the top right corner of the surround. • The key plan is to include a north arrow.

Additional Documentation For more information about the D&C-LI text styles, please refer to the Design & Construction Linear Infrastructure – Version 1.3 MicroStation Text Styles reference document. Text styles from the DGN library are shown in the document. See "Appendix D, Additional Documentation" for document file name.

• The key plan is to highlight the project street and have a least two (2) major arterial roads visible.

• Outline the extent of work covered by each sheet and pattern the working area accordingly.

• Show the location of shut-off valves and hydrants (for watermain projects only).

• Key plans must match the D&C-LI level structure.

Leader Lines Leader lines should have a short horizontal bar leading in and leading out from the text. Use filled arrowheads. Leader lines and auto dimensioning is pre-set in the MicroStation "Task Manager". The v8_levels_1.3.dgnlib DGN library contains these settings. Multi-Lines Multi-lines are pre-set in the MicroStation "Task Manager". These settings reside in the v8_levels_1.3.dgnlib DGN library.

Additional Documentation For more information about the D&C-LI multi line styles, please refer to the Design & Construction Linear Infrastructure – Version 1.3 MicroStation Multi Line Styles reference document. Multi line styles from the DGN library are shown in the document. See "Appendix D, Additional Documentation" for document file name.


September 2012 51

Dimensions All dimensions should be shown in millimetres. Geodetic elevations, chainages, alignments and site drawings should be shown in metres. Dimensions settings are contained in the v8_levels_1.3.dgnlib DGN library. Using MicroStation "Task Manager" will simplify drafting operations by setting the correct dimension style based on the selected task. It is up to the designer to select the correct tool for the dimensioning, depending on where or type of dimension to be placed (eg. linear, angular, etc.). Some things to note about dimensioning: • Use automatic dimensioning — real size length. • Use filled arrowheads for dimension terminators. • Stagger and offset dimension lines from each other starting with

minor dimensions placed close to the working area, then major dimensions and then overall dimension lines.

• Use three (3) decimal places for proposed features (182.137) and two (2) decimal places for existing features (182.14).

Additional Documentation For more information about the D&C-LI dimension styles, please refer to the Design & Construction Linear Infrastructure – Version 1.3 MicroStation Dimension Styles reference document. Dimension styles from the DGN library are shown in the document. See "Appendix D, Additional Documentation" for document file name.
